  • bike running rich

    i have a 97 TLS and i have a problem with the bike running rich on me and fouling out the plugs after 1 year. took the power commander off and readjusted the bike and it was perfect for about a year, now black smoke an the plugs fouling out again. any answers out there?

    Ditch the crappy PC2 and use a Yosh box.. Never fails

      What plugs are you running with?

      Try Iridum ix plugs and see how it runs with them in...
      Just a few mods:

      Silver, the fastest color!

      On the inside - HID type bulbs, K&N filter, Iridium ix plugs, 16T front sprocket, Coerce billet sprocket cover, Yosh re-map +5, +5, +5 11 o'clock, Scorpio SE-i500 system from my GB and an ATRE.

      On the outside - TLR forks, front carbon fender, 5/8th master brake cylinder, black SS brake lines (frnt & rear), braking waves all around with Ti bolts, Brembo gold front calipers & a busa gold rear caliper, flush mount signals (frnt & rear), ZG DB scr

        Sounds like the PC is out of the pic?
        readjusted how? Yosh box:dunno


        Do you have access to a YAFMS box? try zeroing out the ECU. and then redo it. or maybe some hotter plugs/wires:dunno

            Air filter? Dirty? Replace it or clean it if it is a reusable aftermarket one.

            Also as usual, #1 on the list, check your TPS.

            The black smoke leads me away from a plug problem, although they will keep fouling with a rich mixture.

                sometimes weather will play a big part. I know my Bike runs differently depending on the time of year.

                It was WAY COLD out today, and my bike rode terribly.

                  That's ironic. My TLS (with PC2) runs like a freakin' raped ape when it is cold out. More air density.

                  My ported and FMF piped 500cc 2 stroke dirt bike was Godlike in cold weather. Truly sick power. Spin up the rear and wheelie at the same time in 3rd. Yee haw!
